A is for Aden and Z is for Zanzabar

A is for Aden and Z is for Zanzibar... Now what is between? For the world wide classical era philatelist and stamp collector, a country specific philatelic survey is offered by the blog author, Jim Jackson, with two albums: Big Blue, aka Scott International Part 1 (checklists available), and Deep Blue, aka William Steiner's Stamp Album Web PDF pages. Interested? So into the Blues...

Big Blue's Bulgarian Blunder

Are you seeing double?

Embedded in the DNA of Big Blue since 1941, the illustration and description for the 1926 Bulgarian Lion "center embossed" issue should cause confusion. The Illustration is for the Scott 203 10 Leva "brown black and brown orange" stamp (<$1). The adjacent description is for the 10 Leva "brown black and brown orange" stamp.

About Me

After thirty years of being away, I resumed my 1840-1940 worldwide collection in 2011. I initially settled on Big Blue, the Scott International Volume (Part) 1. But there was no checklist: - until now. You can see the results with my blog posts.
In the meantime, I began to put my collection in the WW classic Steiner albums (Deep Blue). I love evaluating the classical stamps for a country, and reporting the findings here.
And I would appreciate any suggestions for making this effort better. Enjoy!
Jim
